Found one.

If you have a bimini top and are looking to convert your boat to a T-Top, I would be interested in your FACTORY bimini top. Must fit the 180 Fisherman. PM me with the details.

*UPDATE, found a 2019.

Totally unacceptable on a brand new boat. What is the issue you're having with the dealer? Why won't they make this right?

I'm downsizing and looking for a late model only please, 2015 and up. Will travel for the right boat.

It is a SWS carb'd engine. I told my friend if the boat is clean with no issues, I felt the boat is worth $12k tops. BTW what is the dif between the SWS and the OX66?

A friend of mine is looking at a 1999 Grady 180 Sportsman CC with a fiberglass hardtop and a Yamaha 150 Saltwater series. The boat has about 300 hrs on it and it comes with a trailer. Considering the boat is very clean with no issues, any idea on what would be a fair price for him to pay? Any...

It is even, I read somewhere that the cavitation plate should be visiable while on plane, any thoughts?

I have a 2002 208 Adventure w/ a 200 hp Yamaha 4-stroke. My motor is mounted on the second hole from the top. The plate above the prop is buried and cannot be seen while under way. I was wondering what mounting hole is everyone running?

I am a new to Grady owner. I went out a couple of weeks ago to see the USS Intrepid towed back to her berth with the family (son-6 and daughter-3) plus the wife. Now my wife looks for any reason to complain and this was the day to do it. Lower manhattan looked like to open Atlantic with 4 ft...

I haven't fished in 25 years. I used to fish for blues on Long Island but that was along, long, long time ago. I would love to get back into fishing but have no idea what equipment I need or where to go (I live on the lower hudson river). I have no problem venturing out into the atlantic but...

I had a 15 1/2x19 Yamaha SS on my boat when I first got it. I was yurning 4800 rpm with normal load. I switched to the same prop in 17" pitch and now I'm turning 5100-5200 same conditions. I think the throttle plates might not be fully open. I should be running 5800-6000, getting about 38 mph.

Thanks AA, I've heard of this b4 but wasn't sure if that was the problem. I was told to use Starbrite hull cleaner.

I guess I wasn't clear with my question. When I first got the boat a month ago the hull was white. Now that I've splashed it a few times I notice that each time I pull the boat out it has a yellow tint to the hull. I have NOT waxed the boat yet. Something in the hudson river is slowly turning my...

My response to the question about towing has not been about the hitch itself but the vehicle pulling the boat. Yes I agree you will need the proper hitch that is rated for your boat. My opinion is about the truck itself. I agree with most that the hitch should be within the specs you plan to...

Can anyone advise as to why the gelcoat gets a yellow tint to it when you take it out on the water? What is the best way to clean it?

As I stated earlier, I routinely towed 6-8k with my 1995 F-150 with the factory receiver. In the many yrs of towing that weight, sometimes over distances of 500 miles I never experienced a problem. The previous owner of my 208 adventure towed it with a 2002 F-150 4x2 extended cab for 6 yrs...

You are right sir. 5000 is indeed for the bumper. The hitch receiver can tow 9900 lbs. Without the 4x4 system that truck will be a great riding tow vehicle. 3:55's are ok, I perfer 4:10's or even 4:30's in the Fords. I had 4:10's in my previous truck and what a difference it made towing. The...

I tell all my friends when they ask for advice on trucks, "Don't buy a 4x4 unless you need 4-wheel drive". So many people rush out and buy a 4x4 and never use it. There is a lot of extra maintance on the 4-wheel drive system and the gas milage is worse. In a typical 4x4, if you don't have lmt...

As a former mechanic, my opinion is you can tow that boat with a F-150 or equivalent. My suggestion would be to make sure you have a tranny cooler and the brakes and cooling system are up to snuff. Something I would add if you don't have 4-wheel drive is a limited slip differential. If you get...
